• Factory test identification discretes are all open. (These discretes into the IC-600 should not bewired in the aircraft or system bench. They are intended for use in a factory repair environmentonly.)

• The IC-600, displays, and remaining avionics must be powered on to optimize self test results.

3. TEST MODES

3.1 IN-AIR-INITIATED TEST

An in flight (Weight Off Wheels) test may be initiated by pushing and holding the TEST button onthe DC-550 (Figure 3.1.1).

NOTE: This test is inhibited when Glide Slope is captured.

The test results in the active FD mode annunciations on the PFD being replaced by a magenta“TEST” annunciation (Figure 3.1.2). The Radio Altimeter will also be commanded into the testmode resulting in the display of a fixed radio altitude of 100 ft. The MFD and EICAS will notchange during this test.

No other visible testing of the IC-600 will be executed during in this “in-air” test. However,background testing of the IC-600 is continually in process verifying such parameters as powersupply levels, analog to digital functions, software/hardware validity, and other parameters.

Figure 3.2.4. Interface Self-Test Display

As each segment of hardware is tested the status is annunciated:

ANNUNCIATION COLOR DESCRIPTION

“VALD” Green Valid Data

“INVD” Red Invalid data is detected

“PASS” Green Successful end-around hardware test

“FAIL” Red Unsuccessful end-around hardware test

“N/A” White Not applicable/Not installed. Determined through theconfiguration discretes

A PASS/FAIL status indicates that the test is performed utilizing the manipulation of“end-around” hardware signals. These tests multiply the internal signals into the appropriatehardware. In the case of analog signals, the internal test voltages are used. Each test is runagain after the first failure to avoid erroneous FAIL determination.

A VALD/INVD (Valid/Invalid) status implies that the test is performed on incoming signals andNOT on internally wrapped signals.

As each segment of hardware is tested the red FAIL/INVD annunciation will be replaced by agreen PASS or valid (VALD) if the hardware test is successful. It may be necessary to runthrough the tests more than once to isolate intermittents.

IBIT determines the status of the following items within the IC-600 as directed by theconfiguration:

• Autopilot status (if installed)

• Flight Director status

• Symbol Generator status

IBIT also tests the external or “blind sensors” are checked for valid data (a “blind sensor” isone whose failure is NOT apparent):

• Display Unit (DU-870)

• ATT/HDG interface

• Radio Alt Interface

• Radio Interface

• Display Controller

• Lamp Drivers

• ADC data (MADC).

The results of the Initiated Test are displayed on the PFD without further operator action.When the FAIL/INVD annunciation remains after performing the tests, the following actionsshould be accomplished:

• Verify the appropriate LRU providing the tested interface is installed and power is applied.

• Verify the wiring interface between the tested IC and LRU is correct.

Replace the tested LRU with the cross-side unit to verify if condition remains. If not, replacesuspect LRU and document the failed condition. Details of specific actions may be found inthe manufacturers aircraft fault isolation manual.

3.3 MAINTENANCE TEST MODE

The maintenance displays provide the capability for the end user to display maintenance pageson the PFD. To enter the Maintenance Test Mode:

• Use the decision height (RA) knob on the DC-550 (Figure 3.1.1) to set a RA value between600 and 990 feet. Please note that four (4) INDEX pages at RA settings of 600, 610, 620,and 630 are provided as a reference to the available maintenance pages.

• Select decesion height knob on DC-550 for 600 or above on PFD.

• Push and hold TEST button/knob on the DC-550 for approximately 5 to 7 seconds .

• While holding TEST button, push ET button on the DC-550.

• Release the TEST button.

• The IC-600 should now be in the maintenance test mode and will remain in test (via software)until it is cancelled by another press of the TEST button OR selecting a RA setting below600.

In Maintenance Test mode, the MFD will be exactly the same as in the On-Ground-Initiated Testmode. The PFD will be replaced with the results of the various maintenance tests. Theseresults are displayed on several pages which are selected by the RA set knob on the DC-550.In addition to test results, there are also pages of sensor status and other miscellaneousinformation.

There will be a distinct page (and possible subpages) for each setting of RA, beginning with600 ft. and then for every 10 ft. above (i.e., 610, 620, etc). There are two sets of maintenancepages which are selectable based on the pushbutton selections. One set of maintenancepages, customer maintenance pages, are displayed for use in determining the valid operation ofthe IC-600. These pages are activated by pressing the TEST pushbutton approximately 5 to 7seconds and then pressing the ET pushbutton. The second set of maintenance pages,engineering maintenance pages, are displayed to assist in troubleshooting the IC-600 internaloperation. These engineering pages are activated by setting RA to 990 or greater and pressingthe FULL/WX pushbutton while in the customer maintenance pages. Once the engineeringpages have been entered, to display the customer mainenance pages upon re-entering theMaintenance Test Mode the ET pushbutton must be selected again or the engineering pages willbe displayed.

3.3.3 DISPLAY UNIT PAGES

This page displays the status of the Display Units. Data is wrapped back from display units,the MFD and EICAS on the HDLC bus and the PFD on a ARINC 429 channel. If any of thewrapped parameters do not agree, the DU WRAP will be set to FAIL. When this occurs, thefollowing acctions should be taken:

• Verify the appropriate DU is installed with power applied to the unit.

• Verify the appropriate Display Wrap Around interface between the IC-600 and thesuspect DU.

• Replace the suspect DU with a DU from another position and if the FAIL conditioncontinues to be observed, document the condition and remove the unit for repair.

PFD, MFD, and EICAS VALIDs remain true if the labels being sent from the DU to IC-600 arefresh. Each PFD (DUs #1 and #5) provide data via Arinc 429, while each MFD and theEICAS (DUs #2, 3, and 4) provide data via HDLC.

The DU Cooling Fan status is monitored by the Dispaly Units and the status is sent to theIC-600 via the Wrap Arounds. If the FAIL annunciation is displayed, the following actionsshould be taken:

• Verify that nothing is obstructing the fan inlet or outlet for the appropriate DU.

• Replace the suspect DU with a DU from another position and if the FAIL conditioncontinues to be observed, document the condition and remove the unit for repair.

3.3.4 EVENT CODES (RA SETTING 670)

This page displays non-volatile flight data, referred to as Event Codes (EC). A total of 64flights (each flight is defined as one weight on wheels cycle) can be stored. The 65th flightwill automatically overwrite flight number one’s data. Flights will only be stored when an EChas been recorded.

This maintenance page powers up displaying the EC addresses for the current flight, i.e., ECsfor the upcoming flight will be stored in the displayed addresses. If no recordable eventcodes have occurred during the most recent flight, the last flight with recorded event codeswill be displayed. The maximum number of ECs stored per flight is 48. Note that only 8 ECscan be displayed on the screen at once. To view the previous 8 ECs, (“FULL/WX”) and toview the next 8 ECs, use DC-550 “ET,” or press the NAV PB on.

Whenever the staus is displayed as “I”, the following actions should be taken:

• Enter GMT on the cross-side IC-600 and observe the parameter in question. For example,if the parameter is question is the Primary Pitch, then the cross-side IC-600 Secondarypitch should be observed.

• If the two separate GMTs agree, then replace the AHRS with the cross-side AHRS andrepeat the GMT. If the status remains displayed as “I”, then the AHRS should be replacedand the discrepant condition documented. Note that the primary pitch for IC-600 No.1 isAHRS No. 1 and the Secondary pitch for IC-600 No. 2 is AHRS No. 2, while the PrimaryPitch for IC-600 No. 2 is AHRS No. 2 and the Secondary Pitch for IC-600 No. 2 is AHRSNo. 1.

• If the two separate GMTs do not agree, verify the ARINC 429 interface to the IC-600s andthe AHRS.

Whenever a “FAIL” condition is displayed for all the parameters, the following actions shouldbe taken:

• Verify the appropriate MADC is installed and power is applied.

• Perform GMT on the cross-side IC-600. If all the parameters also show a “FAIL” condition,the suspect MADC should be replaced.

• If the parameters show a “VALID” condition for the cross-side GMT test, then the ARINC429 interface for the suspect MADC should be verified.

Whenever a “FAIL” condition is displayed for only one or some of the parameters, thefollowing actions should be taken:

• The MADC should be replaced with the cross-side MADC. If the parameters now display a“VALID” condition, the suspect MADC should be replaced.

• If the “FAIL” condition remains, verify the pitot/static interface with the suspect MADC.

4. EVENT CODES

NOTE 1: If an Event Code No. is displayed and it is not listed in this document, Event Codes,please contact your local Customer Support Engineer for further instruction.

NOTE 2: Please write the Event Code No. on your exchange or repair transaction. Pleaseprovide details regarding maintenance actions required to fix system anomalies.

There are two categories of IC-600 failure and associated codes:

(a) Power-up failures - These result in a latched failure which can only be reset by cycling the 28Vdc circuit breaker. Power-up failures are identified as Event Codes 0001-0199 and all 90XXcodes.

(b) Continuous monitored failures - These result in AP/YD disengage with an associated EventCode, all 02XX and 91XX codes. If one of these monitors trips, such as in overpowering theautopilot, and the AP FAIL annunciation is displayed on the EFIS/EICAS, the failure can bereset by holding the AP DISC button for 2 second. Resetting the IC-600 circuit breaker willalso reset the computer, however, the preferred method is the AP disconnect button. Not all ofthe 02XX or 91XX codes will result in the AP failing. They may result in the AP disconnecting,for example, a code 0207 - Primary Pitch invalid.

Event codes 03XX and 04XX are codes which are logged but do not prevent AP engagement.

CAUTION: IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT AT NO TIME SHOULD MAINTENANCEPERSONNEL ATTEMPT TO REPLACE A HONEYWELL LRU BASED ONEVENT CODES ALONE. IN MOST CASES, THE RECORDED EVENT CODESSHOULD BE USED AS A TOOL ALONG WITH TRADITIONAL GROUNDTESTING AND OTHER STANDARD MAINTENANCE PRACTICES.

SECTION IISTANDARD GROUND TEST PROCEDURE

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of the following tests is to verify functionality of each component and its associatedwiring. Inputs and outputs for each LRU will be tested. IC-600 internal functions such as gainprogramming and monitors will not be exercised as they are verified at power up by softwarechecks.

Prior to testing ensure all sensors and radios are valid.

In many instances the reader will be referenced to Section I, IC-600 Self Test, where componentand interface functionality can be verified.

All values stated in these tests have a ± 10% tolerance.

SECTION IIIEXPANDED GROUND TEST PROCEDURE

1. INTRODUCTION

The format of the tests is to identify the required response without elaboration. The Work Stepsdefine the preliminary setup for each test but it may be necessary to reset and reengage the modeduring the course of the test. For these reasons these tests should only be used by technicianswho understand the system theory and operation.

All values stated in these tests should have a ± 10% tolerance.

2. PRIMUS 650/660 WEATHER RADAR SYSTEM CHECK

The following paragraphs provide the procedures for operation and checkout of the radar.

2.1 PRELIMINARY CONTROL SETTINGS

Place the system controls on the WC-650 Controller in the following positions before applyingpower from the aircraft electrical system:

MODE OFFGAIN Fully counterclockwiseTILTFully clockwise to +15 positionFunction WX

2.2 PRECAUTIONS

If radar is to be operated in any mode other than STBY , included TEST mode, while the aircraftis on the ground:

(a) Direct the nose of the aircraft so that the antenna scan sector is free of large metallicobjects such as hangars or other aircraft for a distance of 100 feet and tilt antenna fullyupwards.

(b) Avoid operations during refueling of aircraft or other refueling operations within 100 feet.

(c) Avoid operation if personnel are standing too close in the 270 degree forward section of theaircraft. Referring to the Maximum Permissible Exposure Level, this distance would be a5–foot radius from the antenna.

2.3 TEST PATTERN

After warm up, select TEST mode and verify that the test pattern appears as shown in Section IIFigure 12.1.1 or Figure 12.1.2. If the noise band is missing or broken it is indicative of problemswith the system.

2.4.3 PITCH GAIN ADJUSTMENT/CHECK

(a) Set SCAN and XMTR switches, on RTA housing, to OFF (toward antenna) and selectStandby on the Controller. The RTA is now in pitch and roll calibration mode.

(b) Select preset GAIN. This forces a 0-degree condition in azimuth by the processor.Azimuth position of the antenna does not matter in calibration mode.

(c) Adjust TILT control on Controller for 0-degree on the face of the flat-plate radiator withan inclinometer.

NOTE: Since the No. 2 AHRS is used to provide the stabilization input to the RTA,press the No. 2 AHRS test button to simulate 10-degree nose up pitch and20 degrees of right roll.

(d) Verify that the antenna tilts down 25 ± 1.5 degrees.

2.4.4 ROLL GAIN ADJUSTMENT/CHECK

(a) Verify that the GAIN control is out of the preset position. This will force a 90-degree rightazimuth condition by the processor.

NOTE: Since the No. 2 AHRS is used to provide the stabilization input to the RTA,press the No. 2 AHRS test button to simulate 10-degree nose up pitch and20 degrees of right roll.

(b) Verify that the antenna tilts up 25 ± 1.5

(c) Return the GAIN control to preset, turn the system off, and set the SCAN and XMTRswitches to ON.

2.5 FAULT MONITORS

Critical functions in the RTA are continuously monitored. The RTA utilizes the EFIS as thedisplay mechanism by transmitting detected faults to it via the control bus. The EFIS willtypically display amber WX on the MFD if no SCI data is present or when an RTA failure hasoccurred. This may be due to an actual bus failure or if the RTA is not powered up. When theRTA serial bus is functioning normally, the EFIS will indicate the presence of any failuresdetected by the RTA fault monitoring system and by displaying an amber fault code number inthe tilt angle location of the display when in Test mode.

NOTE: Past faults are stored in the internal memory of the radar. These are accessiblewhen the unit is returned to a Honeywell repair facility. Only the current faults aredisplayed when the unit is placed in Test mode.

The Fault Codes and a brief description of each are listed in Volume I, Section 2.5, Tables 2-5-5and 2-5-6 of this system maintenance manual.

3. EFIS CHECK

The following paragraphs provide the procedures for checkout of the EFIS.

3.1 PRELIMINARY CONTROL SETTINGS

(a) Reversionary Controller: The MFD Selector should be set to NORM. The ADC, SG, andAHRS pushbuttons should not be selected to REV.

(b) Display Controller: BRG 0 and BRG <> knobs selected to OFF.

3.2 DU-870 DISPLAY UNITS

(a) After applying aircraft power, ensure that the displays light up. Use the Dimming Controllerto adjust each display to the desired brightness.

(b) Check each display for color, clarity, and general overall appearance.

(c) Shine a light into each of the photocells on the displays and observe that the displaybrightness level increases.

NOTE: It is normal for the display to overdrive since the photocell is calibrated forchanges in ambient light and not for a direct light source such as a flashlight.

The AHRS has six fundamental operating modes. They are Initialization, Full Performance, DG,Basic, Test, and Maintenance modes.

The initialization mode is entered upon power up of the system. During this mode the systemperforms self tests to determine the condition of its components (sensors, CPU, power supply,etc). At the end of the initialization process, the system enters full performance mode unless asystem input (lack of input) or operator command has placed it in one of the reversionary modes(basic or DG).

The test mode can be activated by the operator at any time while the aircraft is on the ground.During the test the system outputs are driven to preset test values to verify proper operation of thedata channels, interconnects, and indicators.

The maintenance mode is designed for use in installing and maintaining the AHRS. An installeruses the mode for setting discretes (orientation, SDI, and ARINC 29 Hi/Low Select), determiningthe flux valve compensation coefficients, and determining the mounting tray alignment coefficients.Honeywell field support uses the mode for special data retrieval on the aircraft. A special functionin the maintenance mode is the automatic compass swing. This mode is accessed by groundingthe Maintenance Test pin on the AHRU and communicating via RS-232 with a laptop andHoneywell supplied software.

6.5 VERIFICATION OF MEMORY MODULE PROGRAMMING

If the previous AHRS CHECK procedures have been performed then it has been verified that thememory module on the mounting tray has been programmed correctly.

The programming of each location in the memory module was verified during the AHRScheckout procedure as described below.

(a) Memory Module Programmed Flag. The AHRS will not enter the flux valve calibrationprocedure unless the Memory Module Programmed Flag in the memory module has beenprogrammed correctly. If the flux valve calibration was completed successfully then it hasbeen verified that the Memory Module Programmed Flag in the memory module has beenprogrammed correctly.

(b) Orientation Select. If this location is not programmed correctly, the AHRS pitch and rolloutputs will be incorrect. If the orientation stored in the memory module is 90 degrees offfrom the actual orientation of the AHRS, then the pitch of the aircraft will appear in theAHRS roll output, and the roll of the aircraft will appear in the AHRS pitch output. If theorientation stored in the memory module is 180 degrees off from the actual orientation ofthe AHRS, then the pitch and roll outputs of the AHRS will have the wrong sign. (i.e., theywill be positive when they should be negative and vice versa.) If the AHRS Attitude OutputsCheckout procedure described in Section 6.3 was completed successfully, then theorientation select in the memory module has been programmed correctly.

(c) Source/Destination Identifier. If this location is not programmed correctly, then the AHRSwill not respond when it is addressed on the ASCB or ARINC bus. If the AHRS ARINCCheckout (Section I paragraph 3.3.22 and 3.3.23, RA 850 and 860) procedure wascompleted successfully, then the source/destination identifier in the memory module hasbeen programmed correctly.

(d) ARINC Configuration. If this location is not programmed correctly, then the AHRS will notrespond when it is addressed on the ARINC bus. If the AHRS ARINC Checkout (Section Iparagraph 3.3.22 and 3.3.23, RA 850 and 860) procedure was completed successfully, thenthe ARINC configuration in the memory module has been programmed correctly.

(e) Controller Configuration. If this location is not programmed correctly, then the AHRS willnot respond to controller inputs. If the AHRS was successfully placed in the output testmode via a controller command during the AHRS Test Mode (Section 6.2) procedures thenthe controller configuration in the memory module has been programmed correctly.

(f) Mounting Tray Misalignment Angle. If these locations are not programmed correctly, theAHRS pitch and roll outputs will be incorrect. If the AHRS Attitude Outputs Checkoutprocedure described in Section 6.3 was completed successfully, then the mounting traymisalignment angle in the memory module has been programmed correctly.

(g) Discrete Data Sumcheck. If this location is not programmed correctly the memory modulesumcheck power-on BITE test in the AHRS will fail, and the AHRS outputs shall indicate anAHRS fault. If the AHRS was successfully powered up without the outputs indicating anAHRS fault, then the discrete data sumcheck in the memory module is correct.

(h) Flux Valve Calibration Coefficients. If these locations are not programmed correctly, theoutput of the AHRS flux valve will not be properly compensated for errors caused bysources of magnetism other than the earth’s magnetic field. If the AHRS Flux ValveCheckout (Section 6.4) procedure was completed successfully, then the flux valvecalibration coefficients must have been correctly stored in the memory module.

(i) Flux Valve Calibration Date. These locations are not used by the AHRS, therefore there willbe no faults or errors if these locations are not programmed correctly, as long as the fluxvalve calibration data sumcheck in the memory module accurately reflects the flux valvecalibration date data.

(j) Flux Valve Calibration Coefficients Sumcheck. If this location is not programmed correctlythe memory module sumcheck power-on BITE test in the AHRS will fail, and the AHRSoutputs shall indicate an AHRS fault. If the AHRS was successfully powered up without theoutputs indicating an AHRS fault, then the flux valve calibration coefficients sumcheck inthe memory module is correct.

7.5.1 AUDIO PANEL FLIGHT TEST PROCEDURES

• Electromagnetic Compatibility - With all systems operating in-flight, verify by observation,that operation of the Audio Panel has no adverse effects on other aircraft systems.

• Audio Quality Check - Monitor all audio signals during flight, testing all individual radiosincluding but not limited to:

− Intelligibility of VHF communications

− Localizer ident

− Marker beacon audio

− VOR ident

− ADF ident

− DME ident

• Emergency Com Check - Depress “Emer Com” button and verify operation of audio panelin a simulated failure mode.

8. TRAFFIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (TCAS)

8.1 TCAS CHECK

The TCAS II is programmed to perform automatic self-test at power-on and during operation.Resident test programs are executed independently in the computer unit. The test performedinclude power-on self-test, continuous self-test, and commanded self-test.

The computer unit detests system faults and reports them on its front panel lamp display. Itsflight leg memory stores status and fault information for 10 consecutive flight legs. A flight leg isthe interval between weight-off-wheels and weight-on-wheels during which the TCAS isoperative. By recalling the stored data, ground maintenance personnel can evaluate in-flightperformance on the ground and fault isolate a current or previous failure to a specific LRU orLRU interface.

Table 8.1 lists the functions of the computer unit display lamps and the correspondingtroubleshooting actions. If the lamps indicate an antenna problem, the antenna connectionsshould be checked by measuring wiring resistance at the tray per Figure 8.1.1 and Table 8.2.The resistance values in Table 8.2 are between center conductor and shield on each LTP andLMP connector.

Table 8.3 summarizes how computer unit self-test is executed at power-on, during TCASoperation, and during commanded self-test. The computer unit can execute commandedself-test only when the aircraft is on the ground.
